Hey, i'm using original samsung galaxy note 3 earphones and i could listen to 3D audio such as this tucker zone or dolby atmos test just fine. I also play a 10 year old Online FPS (not csgo) and i think its sound direction is stilll better.

However, when i play valorant i often find it difficult to tell if someone is coming from our front or our back (especially when the type of floor is the same in both direction, such as the bottom floor of A site Split or sands floor in Bind)

Of course, right vs left is easy but front and back is very difficult for me. Is this issue lies in my earphone? If yes, what is the cheapest headphone you would recommend to improve upon my issue?

Edit : i contacted CS about this problem and give them the links to this thread. I also have sent the logs like asked me to, and they will look into it. You can submit a ticket here , maybe more game logs will help them figure out what's wrong

Differentiating distances is also difficult in this game. It's almost like an "all or none" situation u/tehleach u/Riot_Preeti u/Riot_Fragloser
